Chapter 350: Tiger Ben, Tiger Ben!
"General, Xuzhou Mu's cavalry is here!"
Cheng Yanjin picked up the axe and led a thousand cavalry as bait to lure Xuzhoumu's reinforcements close to the place where the crossbowmen were ambushed.
"It's finally here, but let me wait."
Cheng bit the golden horizontal axe immediately, the sand and dust on the horizon rolled, and a cavalry appeared, one of the generals held the battle flag in both hands, hunting!
"It's really strange, why is this group of cavalry so weird?"
Cheng Yanjin was puzzled, the cavalry that appeared on the horizon looked very different from the Central Plains, and it was a female general who rushed to the front.
Joan of Arc led the six hundred high-level cavalry of the servant legion, this cavalry came from different civilizations, and its appearance ranged from the east to the west, so Cheng Zhijie saw a coalition of multiple civilizations.
"It doesn't seem to be the cavalry of the Central Plains, the lord has a saying, there is a foreign general under the command of Xuzhou Mu, who leads a servant army. It seems that the main force of Xuzhou has arrived. ”
Cheng Yanjin led the cavalry to retreat, turning back from time to time to see if the other party had been fooled.
Joan of Arc's cavalry really chased after her, her cavalry rolled up the dust, Cheng Yanjin thought that Joan of Arc's cavalry had at least four or five thousand cavalry, maybe there were still a large number of main cavalry in the rear.
As long as the four or five thousand cavalry of Joan of Arc were successfully ambushed, the morale of the Xuzhou herding cavalry army could be damaged.
"The little of the interracial has no brains, she has already been tricked!"
Cheng Yanjin excitedly led Joan of Arc's cavalry to approach the earthen ram where the commander had laid an ambush.
A war eagle landed on Mulan's shoulder, and Mulan, riding an Arab war horse, led the cavalry to follow Chutian.
Joan of Arc was used by Chu Tian to lure the enemy, tied branches to the horse's tail, rolled up the dust, and created a scale of four or five thousand cavalry with six hundred foreign cavalry, confusing Cheng to bite gold.
To say how high Cheng Biting Jin's resourcefulness is, it may not be.
Chu Tian divided six hundred foreign cavalry, and currently there are only six thousand six hundred elite cavalry under his command, of which 1,000 are eighth-order tiger heavy cavalry, and the rest are high-level cavalry who survived the Battle of Mobei. In order to speed up the march of the Tiger Heavy Cavalry, Chu Tian specially asked for a batch of ordinary war horses from the horse farm of Langya Kingdom, and configured two additional horses for each Tiger Heavy Cavalry. In other words, a Tiger Heavy Cavalry with three horses could advance at almost the same speed as the Light Cavalry.
All the cavalry were sharp, and the weapons and arrows they consumed in the Battle of Mobei had been fully replenished. After returning from the Battle of Mobei, they did not have much time to rest, and they were forced to plunge into a hard battle.
There was not a trace of tiredness on the faces of all the soldiers. On the contrary, all are scrappy. They have experienced terrible battles, fought side by side, and already have an invisible military force. The fewer people, the stronger the cohesion!
"Cheng Biting Jin has been tricked. We waited for a detour to the foot of Xiaopei City, and the battle was quickly resolved. Mulan, your cavalry is always on the lookout for scouts and avoids the eyes and ears of the enemy. ”
"Yes!"
"Let's go!"
Chu Tian clamped the horse's belly and led 6,600 elite cavalry to bypass the front of the enemy army and carry out a flank raid!
The plain terrain in the Xuzhou area, a horse plain, is very suitable for cavalry combat!
Six thousand six hundred cavalry galloped, war eagles soared, and white-robed hunting!
"The enemy's weapons are about to be completed, and Xiao Pei is in danger!"
Mi Fang didn't think about tea and dinner recently, and watched the craftsmen of the Yuzhou Legion on the city wall with all their strength to build siege equipment, but they didn't dare to go out of the city to fight.
Xia Liang strictly forbade him to go out of the city to fight, and even if there was no ban, Mi Fang did not dare to go out to fight. The other party's cavalry was eyeing the city gate, and Mi Fang would only lose his life in vain if he went out of the city.
It's just that if you wait like this, once the Yuzhou Army is fully prepared and attacks Xiaopei with all its might, Xiaopei may not be able to hold it.
The commander of the Yuzhou Legion was separated from Mi Fang by a distance of two hundred meters, and he could see that the defense presided over by Mi Fang was not very good, but Mi Fang's command was all elite soldiers. Even an elite legion commanded by an ordinary military general will cause a lot of casualties to the besieging side.
"Xuzhou Mu has taken the bait, and General Cheng is leading him to the ambush site."
A cavalry scout came back non-stop to report to the commander.
"How many cavalry?"
"There were about four or five thousand cavalry."
"Enough. Xuzhou Mu's elite cavalry are all in Xiaopei, and the cavalry he can take out now is only a few thousand people who came back from Mobei, once four or five thousand people are killed or wounded, Xuzhou Mu has no troops to save Xiaopei, and Peiguo can be completely owned by us. ”
The commander of the Yuzhou Army led an elite army to ambush behind the camp. It was an earthen rampart, with 3,000 crossbows armed with strong bows and crossbows, and between the crossbowmen there were 3,000 heavy infantry with spears. The use of 6,000 foot soldiers and crossbowmen, relying on earthen ramparts, was enough to inflict heavy losses on the cavalry corps in Xuzhou.
A soldier lay on the ground, listening with his ears to distant movements. The ground trembled slightly, although it was faint, but the sound of horses' hooves was all too familiar to the battle-hardened veterans, and the soldier stood up and shouted: "General Cheng has led the Xuzhou cavalry over!" ”
"All the soldiers, all in ambush, obey the command, before they can get up and fight!"
The commander of the Yuzhou Army waited patiently for the fighters.
After a while, the sound of horses' hooves in the distance became louder and louder, but the six thousand men and horses in ambush did not panic, they were all elite soldiers. There are earthen ramparts as fortifications, and even if there are tens of thousands of cavalry on the opposite side, they may not be able to block it.
Cheng Yanjin's 1,000 cavalry appeared first, and the dust raised by his cavalry obscured the vision of Joan of Arc's cavalry, so that Joan of Arc's cavalry could not notice that there was an earthen rampart ahead.
Joan of Arc ventured in pursuit of Cheng Biting Jin, and in front of her was the dust raised by Cheng Biting Jin's cavalry.
Chu Tian allowed her to chase after Cheng Biting Jin. Joan of Arc didn't know that she was being used as bait by Chu Tian, and Chu Tian's main force had already begun to make a detour.
"Retreat immediately in case of danger, and abandon all cavalry if necessary, they are slaves, and you are a free people."
This is what Chu Tian said to her before she sent out the army.
Joan of Arc realized the dangers of the trip, and the premonition of danger grew stronger. She clenched the battle flag in her hand, and the words that Chu Tian had told her echoed in her mind. It was clear that Chu Tian realized something.
When Cheng Bitingjin's cavalry approached the earthen fortress, Cheng Yanjin's cavalry dispersed to both sides with superb riding skills, revealing the earthen fortress in front!
A volley of crossbowmen lurking behind the earthen ramparts! Crossbow arrows flew and thousands of crossbow arrows were fired, and dozens of high-level alien cavalry were shot on the spot!
"Retreat!"
Joan of Arc immediately thought of Chu Tian's words, stopped pursuing, and immediately withdrew his troops.
The second round of arrows rained down, people turned on their backs, Joan of Arc's battle flag was shot by stray arrows, and the battle flag was damaged!
"Kill!"
Cheng Yanjin turned his horse's head and led the cavalry to counterattack, chasing and killing the servant cavalry who suffered heavy losses. He wanted to capture the other party's main general alive and inflict heavy losses on Xuzhou Mu.
The commander of the Yuzhou legion, who was in charge of the ambush, commanded the heavy infantry to prepare for defense, and as a result, the crossbowmen routed the opponent with two or three rounds of crossbow arrows. He was surprised by the results.
There were four or five thousand cavalry on the opposite side, and it was clear that there were only a few hundred......
If there were four or five thousand cavalry on the opposite side, the retreat would not be so easy.
"Hit the mark!"
When the commander of the Yuzhou Legion reacted, he was sweating.
He regarded Cheng Biting Jin as a bait, and Joan of Arc was also seen as bait by the other party, and even Joan of Arc didn't know that she had become a bait.
The two sides compete in tactics, and if they are one move worse, they will lose the whole game!
The commander of the Yuzhou Legion had a numb scalp and immediately led the elite soldiers to leave the earthen fortress.
In the camp of the Yuzhou army, the shouting of killing shook the heavens and the earth, and a cavalry of 6,600 people attacked from behind, stepping on the camp!
The 1,000-8th Order Tiger Heavy Cavalry was deployed at the forefront, assaulting in a conical formation, and the rear and flanks were light cavalry who were good at riding and archery, and the crossbows shot arrows, and the arrows rained down!
The Tiger Ben Heavy Cavalry has Chu Tian's personal bonus, and Wei Qing's cavalry aura, bursting out with powerful destructive power!
The Tiger Heavy Cavalry is like a torrent of steel, holding iron halberds, heavy armor and horse armor, and the heavy mass directly tramples the infantry along the way into pulp! The iron halberd is forward or to both sides, harvesting the lives of the Yuzhou army, the sharp iron halberd is indestructible, and human life is like grass mustard!
The infantry, crossbowmen, and even cavalry of the Yuzhou legion camp would also feel sincere fear when they saw the steel behemoth wrapped in heavy armor. Once you are hit by such a monster, you will be crushed!
Tai Shi Ci, who had no special troops, rushed to the front and advanced with the Tiger Ben heavy cavalry. He held two halberds in his hand, and stabbed to the left and right at the same time, and there was hardly a single enemy!
Xue Rengui, Zhao Yun, and Hua Mulan generals each assisted their cavalry troops in the assault, and some fierce generals personally charged into battle, improving morale, and at the same time, the cavalry troops had a stronger ability to break the formation! The fierce general is like a sharp blade, stabbing into the enemy's large formation, opening a gap for the subsequent cavalry to break through!
Wei Qing's Yulin Cavalry had not yet been recruited, and Chu Tian handed over the Changshui Battalion to him to command, and together they attacked the enemy army and destroyed the withered and decayed!
Chen Qingzhi's white-robed army attacked from the flank, and the white-robed army gathered into a white wave, surging and slapping the flank of the Yuzhou legion. After three consecutive shocks, the white-robed army with momentum broke through the flank of the Yuzhou Legion in one fell swoop for the fourth time, and drove straight in!
Chen Qingzhi was caught in the white-robed army, and the arrows were splashing, but unfortunately his force was too low, and he was unable to fight with the Yuzhou soldiers at all, so he could only command in the white-robed army and break through the weak point of the opponent's defense.
At this moment, the white-robed army is his limbs, and the ring-headed sword and horse lance of the white-robed army are his weapons. He doesn't need force, he can kill and wound more enemy troops!
"Damn, this is...... Heavy cavalry! ”
A Yuzhou military general hurriedly gathered thousands of cavalry to block, and when he saw a group of iron armored and armored steel beasts roaring towards him, boundless fear arose.
He had no way to retreat, because Tai Shi Ci and a thousand tiger heavy cavalry had already collided!
Several rows of sharp halberds stabbed in, and the Yuzhou military general was hit by the Tiger Ben Army head-on and died on the spot! The Tiger Army trampled over his corpse, leaving bloody hoof prints!
Thousands of Yuzhou cavalry were crushed, and they were crushed by the Tiger Ben army, with hundreds of dead and wounded!
A thousand heavy cavalry trampled through, and everywhere they went, corpses were strewn, tents collapsed, and shields and armor were everywhere.
"This is the Tiger Ben Army that consumed my 100,000 military exploits to pacify Yanzhou and Yuzhou, and it is worth the money."
Chu Tian gritted his teeth. The Tiger Ben Army showed such terrifying combat effectiveness, which was not unrelated to the fact that it was an eighth-order class. Secondly, the Tiger Benjun ate the bonuses of Chutian's "Blue Wolf White Deer", "Feng Wolf Juxu", and "Han Wu" (Han Wu replaced the soul of the Han Army), and ate the halo of the whole army of Wei Qing's "Marquis of Changping"!
As a heavy cavalry, the Tiger Ben Army was not affected by the terrain under Xiaopei City, and continued to advance until it cut through the army of the Yuzhou Army!
The Yuzhou Army was in chaos, and the low-level troops directly bombed the camp and fled in all directions.
"This battle has been won!"
The 6,600 cavalry wreaked havoc in the camp of the Yuzhou Army, killing and wounding the main force of the Yuzhou Army as much as possible, providing an opportunity for the next decisive battle with the Yuzhou Mushuo Tang.
A team of elite cavalry and foot soldiers appeared, trying to counterattack, they surrounded Zhao Yun and more than a thousand white horse righteous servants, wanting to destroy a general in Xuzhou!
Zhao Yun held the gentian bright silver spear, fought side by side with this group of brothers who survived the battle of Mobei, and swore not to retreat in the face of the counterattack of tens of thousands of elites on the other side! The enemy's blood stained the red and white horses, and Zhao Yun was one hundred, and he did not fall behind!
One after another, Bai Ma Yi died from the cavalry, and when they were still following Zhao Yun closely, they fought bravely to kill the enemy!
Where righteousness goes, life and death go hand in hand, the sky can be learned, and the white horse is the proof!
"That legion is no ordinary soldier."
Wei Qing reminded Chu Tian to pay attention to the enemy legions besieging Zhao Yun.
After the battalion was assaulted by cavalry, the cavalry that did not rout, but organized forces to counterattack, would never be ordinary soldiers, but the elite of the Yuzhou Legion!
This elite cavalry looks similar to the Central Plains people, but it is a little different, they are good at riding and shooting, and they cause a lot of damage to the white horse Yicong. In addition to cavalry, this legion also has infantry, crossbowmen, and seems to be a comprehensive corps like the five colonels of the Northern Army.
"Tiger Army, Shock the Enemy Formation!"
Discovering the elite troops that the Yuzhou legion relied on, Chu Tian didn't say a word, and directly ordered Tai Shici to lead the Huben heavy cavalry to attack the opponent's elite legion.
As the Praetorian Guard of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Tiger Ben Army has terrifying combat power, and what it destroys is the elite of the other party!
The Tiger Army shifted its focus from crushing the low-tier infantry to destroying the opposing elite legions.
When they were targeted by the Tiger Army, the elite of the Yuzhou Legion was terrified.
Their commander went to ambush Joan of Arc, and only the lieutenant was in command of the troops. The difference between the quality of the lieutenant and the coach is not half a point.
The Tiger Heavy Cavalry charged again, and Tai Shici's halberd was stained with the blood of the enemy. The heavily armored heavy cavalry rose and fell with the gallop of the war horse, their eyes were piercing, and they were the elite of a hundred battles, indifferently attacking the unknown elite legions.
No matter what the actual combat strength of the enemy legion is, the Tiger Army, as a heavy cavalry, cannot turn back after launching an attack!
The torrent of steel rushed by, mighty, the elite army on the opposite side tried their best to resist, the spear broke, and the cavalry of the Tiger Army held halberds in both hands, killing the enemy from top to bottom, red and white splashing! Tai Shi Ci killed more than ten people on the other side to open the way for the Tiger Army!
Under the impact of the Tiger Army, the unknown legion on the opposite side was still defeated! There is no one to stop the iron hooves of the Tiger Army!
